Our 2009 Keystone Montana's 5th wheel's graphics faded and peeled withing 2 years. Keystone sent us replacement graphics. Then it dawned on me, do all the work to remove the poor quality graphics to replace them with the same poor quality graphics is not a good decision.
I did remove the worst of the graphics with a 3M large stripe removal tool. It's about a 3" diameter by 5/8" thick item that looks like one of those white sweet gum erasers. Put it in a variable speed drill motor and use a very low speed and most of it comes off. Not hard work but time consuming. Too much speed and pressure and the wheel egg shapes and makes the job harder. Wipe down well with liquid adhesive remover and the glue left behind goes away.
After use a buffing wheel and a very mild rubbing compound and the ghost images fade away. Took me about 12 houes working a couple hours at a time to get it done.
Not going to help you in Rhode Island, but there are a couple places in Mesa, AZ and San Bernadino, CA that have web sites that show what appears to be good quality painted graphics. Had a rough estimate of $2100 for our replacement and we get to design it.
